Man Made Space

Neighborhoods

Austin

Practical side

Parks, a grocery you can walk to, and a house for people whose week is mostly a job.

The practical side is newer streets, parks, and errands you can do on foot. Workweek living is for residents with a commute who want a calmer base than the lively side or the walkable side, still near downtown.

The rooms are furnished for a workday. Shared rooms are for evenings, not a second set of standing desks in the living room. If you want scene, look at Social living. If you want a straightforward week, start here.

A good fit if

  • You have a commute and want it to be sane
  • You like a park and a grocery nearby
  • You want a quieter weekend

The tradeoff

Less nightlife at the door. You will ride or drive for a lot of the city's evening plans.

Getting around

A car is more useful here than at On-foot living. Bikes and the block itself cover the daily loop.
